Joyful Mommies 2008 Summer

Hey girls I hope you don't mind but I started a new post just because it seemed it was getting a little long on our other one. Is everyone okay with this? I just don't want this to seem presumptuous, but I thought it would be easier if we didn't have to go through so many posts. Hope your all not mad at meAnyways, hope your all having a great day! and I will chat later. We are going out of town tomorrow to rent our other home in duluth, mn.

Kelly and April - No we don't have a portable DVD, but to tell you the truth, Emma isn't into watching anything on tv or dvds. I guess I never really pushed it because she's always been good at entertaining herself. I did recently turn on something just to see and she just wasn't interested. So maybe when she gets older. I'm hoping she'll be okay. Even though we're leaving right after she gets up and eats, I think she may nap on the way there, which would be wonderful!

Thanks for all the comments on my hairsyle. I'll have to post pics soon. I went pretty blonde (with higlights) and I love the color! The cut I'm still getting used to. I love all the short choppy layers, I just wish I had some more length. So I'll just let that grow out a little but keep the cut! Plus she thinned it out alot which I really wanted her to, because I have a ton of hair! Now it's sooo quick to dry in the morning!

Hi girls! Just wanted to hop on and say hi really quick. We have a pretty busy weekend so I am not sure how much I will get to post. However, I will CERTAINLY be on tomorrow morning to see Heather's BFP. I just know it is coming sweetie!!! Hope you have a great trip tomorrow too!

So my Dad and I got the whole nursery painted today!!! It looks FANTASTIC!!! We are putting up this wood trim border to separate the two colors I used so I will post pics once him and DH get that up tomorrow. I am so happy with the colors!! I can't wait until it all comes together. Anyway, I hope all of you have a great weekend!!! Talk to you ladies later!!

P.S. Good call on the new thread Julie! I have been meaning to do that for weeks!

Heather- Can't wait to see your hair. I want to get mine done again and this time I think I'm going to get it cut. I always say that but then chicken out! lol I just got it done almost 2 months ago but need something else done. The girl I use to go to only charged me $40-45 but she moved away and now I'm going back to the girl that use to do my hair a few years ago but she charges me $85. So I don't go very often. Anyway, can't wait to see your BFP in the morning!!! :)

Jen- Can't wait to see pics of the nursery! Sounds like things are coming together.

Sorry ladies...BFN! My chart hasn't had any major spikes, so I suspected so. I may not test again unless my temp goes up. Don't want to waste a test for nothing. It may not be my month. If not...that would be kind of ironic, since we weren't planning on trying until next month anyway. We'll see I guess.

Well, time to shower and get ready for out road trip! Have a great day girls!

Heather- Aww, sorry for the BFN but I think you still may be pg and it's just too early to test right now. I will keep my fingers crossed real tight. Have fun on your trip- I hope Emma does good! And be careful..

Aww, Heather, I'm sorry! =( I logged in here on vacation just to see... Well, I'm with April--it's probably just too early to tell. I have my fingers crossed that tomorrow's test is a BFP! It is the magical day 14, after all!

Heather - BOO! I am so sorry honey. But at least your temp stayed up. I didn't have any noticeable spike at all with this pregnancy so I was sure I was out too. Hopefully tomorrow will bring that BFP!!!

I made it over. I am so sorry Heather about the BFN today, but like Jen said, who knows what tomorrow will bring. Thanks Jen for letting me know you all left...I couldn't believe the board was that slow!
